Have you met Helios-44 with mushrooms inside? Me not.Įven in Soviet lenses, the lens blocks do not just twist from pancakes, but have special places for lenses, spacers between them. Apparently, this is not the most successful design: many Primoplan 58 / 1.9 lenses that have survived to this day have mold plantations and other delights inside the lens unit. The lens block device is interesting: the lenses are rolled into “pancakes”, which are fastened together by the most common threads, forming two lens blocks - the front and rear. There is no sophisticated mechanics in Primoplan - everything is primitive. The lens is assembled according to a similar principle as the Soviet Jupiter-8 of the same years. The first thing that can be noted is an extremely simple mechanics device.

In addition, he was apparently lost pads that regulate the working segment. The lens had loose internal lenses, smudges of oil and a mushroom. This is another lens that I got in a substandard state: time did not spare him at all.

The review presents a version in an aluminum "small" case with M42 thread. Modifications are quite different from each other in mechanics. There are a number of versions of this lens: for different types of mounts and in different housings.
The Meyer-Optik Primoplan 58 / 1.9 is the now widely known old (produced in the 40-50s) lens: there is a whole army of fans of its characteristic image (mainly bokeh). Praktica KW SLR camera with standard Primoplan 58 / 1.9
